HOW TO SET UP THE MACHINE
A)
POSITIONING THE UNIT
The BurnBoss unit is self
-
contained and ready to use upon delivery to the job site.
1)
The BurnBoss must be setup on level ground.
2)
The FireBox is lowered to the ground using the hydraulic controls (see page 12).
3)
The bottom edges of the FireBox must touch the ground to insure smoke and em-
bers will not escape underneath the FireBox walls. If necessary shovel some dirt
into (INSIDE) the FireBox to seal the edges. This must be done prior to loading the
FireBox. Add dirt around the bottom behind the tires to prevent any heat from dam-
aging the tires.
4)
With respect to the prevailing wind direction, the unit should be positioned such that
the wind comes over the back of the manifold. This is the preferred position. It is
also acceptable to have the wind blow into the manifold. It is discouraged, however,
to have the wind come from either end of the machine, as this will tend to disrupt the
air curtain.
5)
The FireBox will be loaded either by hand or by machine
OVER THE MANIFOLD. The FireBox should not be loaded opposite the manifold
as there are many hot embers in this area making it dangerous for personnel.
6)
Secure the area (orange safety cones, signs, fencing, etc.) opposite the manifold
(20’
x
20’
see diagram below) and along the side of the machine to insure personnel
do not get near the hot fire or embers.
